(Previous Incident Code: R4406)

An 11-year-old child was injured in alleged Russian or regime strikes on Ma’aret Misrin, Syria, on October 23, 2021.

Alaraby News quoted the Syrian Civil Defense, who reported that an 11-year-old was injured when Russian and regime forces bombed a “fodder depot and a sawmill in the southern farms of the city of Maarat Misrin” with a long-range missile.

A tweet from @anasanas84 identified a building inhabited by displaced people as being the location of the missile strikes and also reported that a child was injured. Horrya News added that there were no other injuries from the strikes and that the location was secured.

A video posted by Ahmed Abu Muawiya on YouTube showed the remnants of the missiles, which he refers to as “vacuum missiles”, and the damage to a home. He reported that homes were “heavily damaged” in the strikes.

Sources were conflicted as to whether Russian forces or the regime forces were responsible for the strikes. The majority of sources identified “surface to surface” or long-range missiles as being used in the strikes and @Najdat567 posted images of what they identified as being Russian “organ missiles”.
